Carpentaria is one of the most versatile vessels in our range. Designed as a prawn trawler, it would lend itself to use as a general work vessel carrying liquid and solid cargo or motor vehicles as well as for general construction work. Good accomodation and facilities make living aboard for lengthy periods quite practical.
The main engines are shown to be a pair of 250 H.P. diesels that will be quite sufficient to drive the boat while being economical to operate. Carrying capacity - 37.5 tons oil cargo, 10.4 tons fuel, 10 tons fresh water and 6.6 tons ballast or extra water.
These plans, 14 sheets, have passed marine board survey and should present little trouble in satisfying requirements in other countries.
